Artistic freedom is quashed as it goes against the philosophies of the Red Guard. Nixon visits China in 1971 and the expression Ping Pong diplomacy of coined. In 1976, Mao dies along with the Cultural Revolution and the new government turns its attention to Chinese economic reform and China is reborn - again." -- Case-slip."
